The Dumb and The Clueless

Chapter 77: Guilty

I feel like I'm going to faint, but then Harry rushed in quickly, and kneeled down next to me.

"Katie-"

"Loved You First" I interrupt.

He stares at me, eyes shining but I quickly see his expression turn into sadness and shock.

"Like my song.."

I sigh helplessly as I put the note in my pocket, before his mother comes in.

"Could you translate it?"

"Yeah, it's in this secret code only him and I know."

"So what did it say?"

"I really can't say.."

I turn and look up to find Harry slowly standing up and leaving the room. I stand there frozen as I finally go crazy.

"Steven don't leave me!" I yell through tears.

I frantically reach for his arm to see the cuts. They weren't bleeding anymore, since he bled out into the tub. I grab the shower head and pry it off of his neck, as it reveals the mark of the wire around his neck. I begin to get desperate as I let out a squeal. I nearly fall back as his body falls onto my arms. I move his face to face me as I lay him down in the tub. I stand up as I begin to cry so hard, I can barely breathe.

"STEVEN!" I yell, as Harry comes to take me away.

"NO!"

He wraps his arms around me, carrying me and taking me out of the household to the car.

"This is all my fault." I mumble with wide eyes.

"No it isn't, Katie yo-"

"THIS IS ALL MY FAULT"

I run home, and lock myself in my bedroom when I get another text.

'Nick :) : Heard the news, so sorry. Xx'

I let out a frustrated groan as I text him back.

"Thanks for everything you've done, love you."

'Love you too .x"

I lay on the bed as I slowly hear harry come upstairs.

"Babe? You okay?"

I stay silent as I hear him sigh.

"Open the door"

"It's all my fault"

He picks the lock somehow, and comes inside to find me standing right infront of him, looking him in the eyes.

"It's all my-"

"No, it's not."

I felt like a bomb has just gone off in me. I start crying really hard again, and feel like fainting and if I'm going to be sick.

"Yes, it-"

"No-"

I stare down as I cry, and feel harry reach for my hand.

"It's okay, Katie."

I feel him pull me towards him, as my head is now against his chest and I feel his heartbeat.

"I can't do this anymore!" I exclaim, as I push harry off of me.

**Harry's P.O.V.**

I see her run to the bathroom and lock herself in. I really think I should take her out of there, because she's been a bit depressed and thinking about self harm. I slam on the door, but hear plastic opening.

"Fuck, Fuck , Fuck"

I hear Katie curse, under her breath. I hear crying, as I lean against the door.

"Let me in!" I yell, as I hear her sob.

I give up, and pick the lock instead to find a passed-out Katie with cuts on her arms.

"No. No no no no no no!" I exclaim as I scoop her up into my arms. It felt like carrying a rag doll, which made it three times harder to carry her. I lay her down in the car as I speed to the nearest hospital.

"Help!"

I run towards the front desk with Katie in my arms. She didn't look good. She was really pale, and bleeding a lot. I take off my shirt and wrap it around the arm that was bleeding the most, (left) and a doctor speeds in with a gurney. I run with the fast moving bed on wheels and see them take her into a room that I can't enter.

"Sir, you can't come in there-"

"LET ME IN THE DAMN ROOM!"

I become impatient and try to reach for the door, as security pulls me back to calm me down.

"Sir, calm down-"

I slip out of their grasp, but stand there frozen as I see all of the tubes and injections they put in her. I sigh, as I sit down in the waiting room, sweating and nervous. I can't stop squirming and moving, as I bite my nail. About two hours later, the doctor comes to me as I jolt up and ask him about a thousand questions.

"Sir, luckily you got her here in time. Five more minutes, and she would've bled out. She'a finally awake, she's just in there having her hospital dinner right now."

I sigh in relief, as I walk into the room and she instantly hides her face.

"Katie, it's okay"

She looks up at me, as I sit on the bed, next to her.

"Feeling better, princess?"

***Katie's P.O.V.***

I nod, as I take another spoonful of my rice. He kisses my cheek as I smile lightly.

"Let me see"

He reaches for my arms, as he looks at the now bandaged arms.

"I'll love you, even with scars. To me, you're strong."
